Abstract
Stem cell therapy stands out as a promising avenue for addressing arthritis treatment. However, its therapeutic efficacy requires further enhancement. In this study, we investigated the anti-arthritogenic potential of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (AMM) overexpressing insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in a collagen-induced mouse model. The IGF-1 gene was introduced into the genome of AMM through transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs). We assessed the in vitro immunomodulatory properties and in vivo anti-arthritogenic effects of IGF-1-overexpressing AMM (AMM/I). Co-culture of AMM/I with interleukin (IL)-1β-treated synovial fibroblasts significantly suppressed NF-kB levels. Transplantation of AMM/I into mice with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) led to significant attenuation of CIA progression. Furthermore, AMM/I administration resulted in the expansion of regulatory T-cell populations and suppression of T-helper-17 cell activation in CIA mice. In addition, AMM/I transplantation led to an increase in proteoglycan expression within cartilage and reduced infiltration by inflammatory cells and also levels of pro-inflammatory factors including cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), IL-1β, NF-kB, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. In conclusion, our findings suggest that IGF-1 gene-edited human AMM represent a novel alternative therapeutic strategy for the treatment of arthritis.

Abstract
Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), also known as premature ovarian failure (POF), is a complex endocrine disease that commonly affects women under the age of 40. It is characterized by the cessation of ovarian function before the age of 40, leading to infertility and hormonal imbalances. The currently available treatment options for POI are limited and often ineffective. Tissue engineering and stem cell-based therapeutic strategies have emerged as promising approaches to restore ovarian function and improve the quality of life for women affected by POI. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the types of stem cells and biomaterials used in the treatment of POI, including their biological characteristics and mechanisms of action. It explores various sources of stem cells, including embryonic stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, and adult stem cells, and their potential applications in regenerating ovarian tissue. Additionally, this paper discusses the development of biomaterials and scaffolds that mimic the natural ovarian microenvironment and support the growth and maturation of ovarian cells and follicles. Furthermore, the review highlights the challenges and ethical considerations associated with tissue engineering and stem cell-based therapies for POI and proposes potential solutions to address these issues. Overall, this paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of research in tissue engineering and stem cell-based therapeutic strategies for POI and offers insights into future directions for improving treatment outcomes in this debilitating condition.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) culture systems have been widely used to promote the viability and metabolic activity of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The aim of this study was to explore the synergistic benefits of using dual 3D MSC culture systems to promote vascular regeneration and enhance therapeutic potential. We used various experimental assays, including dual 3D cultures of human adipose MSCs (hASCs), quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), in vitro cell migration, Matrigel tube network formation, Matrigel plug assay, therapeutic assays using an ischemic hind limb mouse model, and immunohistochemical analysis. Our qRT-PCR results revealed that fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2), granulocyte chemotactic protein-2 (GCP-2), and vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) were highly upregulated in conventional 3D-cultured hASCs (ASC-3D) than in two-dimensional (2D)-cultured hASCs. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and stromal-cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) showed higher expression levels in cytokine-cocktail-based, 3D-cultured hASCs (ASC-3Dc). A conditioned medium (CM) mixture of dual 3D ASCs (D-3D; ASC-3D + ASC-3Dc) resulted in higher migration and Matrigel tube formation than the CM of single 3D ASCs (S-3D; ASC-3D). Matrigel plugs containing D-3D contained more red blood cells than those containing S-3D. D-3D transplantation into ischemic mouse hind limbs prevented limb loss and augmented blood perfusion when compared to S-3D transplantation. Transplanted D-3D also revealed a high capillary density and angiogenic cytokine levels and transdifferentiated into endothelial-like cells in the hind limb muscle. These findings highlight the benefits of using the dual 3D culture system to optimize stem-cell-based therapeutic strategies, thereby advancing the therapeutic strategy for ischemic vascular disease and tissue regeneration.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1113982. [PMID: 36818343 PMCID: PMC9930203 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1113982] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Progressive peripheral arterial disease (PAD) can result in chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) characterized by clinical complications including rest pain, gangrene and tissue loss. These complications can propagate even more precipitously in the setting of common concomitant diseases in patients with CLTI such as diabetes mellitus (DM). CLTI ulcers are cutaneous, non-healing wounds that persist due to the reduced perfusion and dysfunctional neovascularization associated with severe PAD. Existing therapies for CLTI are primarily limited to anatomic revascularization and medical management of contributing factors such as atherosclerosis and glycemic control. However, many patients fail these treatment strategies and are considered "no-option," thereby requiring extremity amputation, particularly if non-healing wounds become infected or fulminant gangrene develops. Given the high economic burden imposed on patients, decreased quality of life, and poor survival of no-option CLTI patients, regenerative therapies aimed at neovascularization to improve wound healing and limb salvage hold significant promise. Cell-based therapy, specifically utilizing mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), is one such regenerative strategy to stimulate therapeutic angiogenesis and tissue regeneration. Although previous reviews have focused primarily on revascularization outcomes after MSC treatments of CLTI with less attention given to their effects on wound healing, here we review advances in pre-clinical and clinical studies related to specific effects of MSC-based therapeutics upon ischemic non-healing wounds associated with CLTI.

Abstract
Although stem cells are promising tools for the treatment of arthritis, their therapeutic effects remain controversial. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic properties of interleukin (IL)-10-overexpressing human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (AMMs) generated via gene editing in a collagen-induced mouse model. IL-10 was inserted into the genomic loci of AMMs via transcription activator-like effector nucleases. In vitro immunomodulatory effects of IL-10-overexpressing AMMs (AMM/I) were evaluated and their anti-arthritogenic properties were determined in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice. Transplantation of AMM/I attenuates CIA progression. In addition, the regulatory T cell population was increased, while T helper-17 cell activation was suppressed by AMM/I administration in CIA mice. Consistently, AMM/I injection increased proteoglycan expression, while reducing inflammation and the expression levels of the pro-inflammatory factors, IL-1 β, IL-6, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and tumor necrosis factor- α, in joint tissues. In conclusion, use of IL-10-edited human AMM/I may be a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of arthritis.

Abstract
Although stem cells have extensively been studied as a novel vehicle for tissue repair, their sustained efficacy remains controversial. In this study, we aimed to investigate the angiogenic potency over time of stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 (SDF‐1) gene‐edited amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (AMM/S) in a hindlimb ischaemia model. An SDF‐1 transgene was inserted into the AMM cell genome via transcription activator‐like effector nuclease (TALEN) mediated knock‐in, and cell migration, Matrigel tube formation, and in vivo Matrigel plug assays were performed. AMM/S were also transplanted into hindlimb ischaemia model mice. Blood perfusion, therapeutic potential, histology, capillary density and in vivo angiogenic assays were performed. AMM/S exhibited high expression of the SDF‐1 gene, and robustly promoted migration, proliferation and microvascular formation. AMM/S transplantation significantly increased blood perfusion and limb loss prevention compared with AMM. AMM/S also significantly inhibited increased capillary density and expression of angiogenic factors in the ischaemic hindlimb. Our study demonstrated that AMM/S provides a significant therapeutic effect in ischaemic hindlimbs by enhancing angiogenesis.

Abstract
AIMS Novel cell-based therapeutic angiogenic treatments for patients with critical limb ischemia may afford limb salvage. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) do not overexpress E-selectin; however, we have previously demonstrated the cell-adhesion molecule's vital role in angiogenesis and wound healing. Thus, we created a viral vector to overexpress E-selectin on MSCs to increase their therapeutic profile. METHODS AND RESULTS Femoral artery ligation induced hind limb ischemia in mice and intramuscular injections were administered of vehicle or syngeneic donor MSCs, transduced ex vivo with an adeno-associated viral vector to express either GFP+ (MSCGFP) or E-selectin-GFP+ (MSCE-selectin-GFP). Laser Doppler Imaging demonstrated significantly restored reperfusion in MSCE-selectin-GFP-treated mice vs. controls. After 3 weeks, the ischemic limbs in mice treated with MSCE-selectin-GFP had increased footpad blood vessel density, hematoxylin and eosin stain (H&E) ischemic calf muscle sections revealed mitigated muscular atrophy with restored muscle fiber size, and mice were able to run further before exhaustion. PCR array-based gene profiling analysis identified nine upregulated pro-angiogenic/pro-repair genes and downregulated Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) gene in MSCE-selectin-GFP-treated limb tissues, indicating that the therapeutic effect is likely achieved via upregulation of pro-angiogenic cytokines and downregulation of inflammation. CONCLUSION This innovative cell therapy confers increased limb reperfusion, neovascularization, improved functional recovery, decreased muscle atrophy, and thus offers a potential therapeutic method for future clinical studies.

Abstract
Cancer is a leading cause of death in both developed and developing countries, and because of population growth and aging, it is a growing medical burden worldwide. With robust development in medicine, the use of stem cells has opened new treatment modalities in cancer therapy. In adult stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are showing rising promise in cancer treatment due to their unique properties. Among different sources of MSCs, human amniotic fluid/membrane is an attractive and suitable reservoir. There are conflicting opinions about the role of human amniotic membrane/fluid mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCS/hAFMSCs) in cancer, as some studies demonstrating the anticancer effects of these cells and others suggesting their progressive effects on cancer. This review focuses on recent findings about the role of hAMSCs/hAFMSCs in cancer treatment and summarizes the suppressing as well as promoting effects of these cells on cancer progression and underling mechanisms.

Abstract
Angiogenesis plays a central role in human physiology from reproduction and fetal development to wound healing and tissue repair/regeneration. Clinically relevant therapies are needed for promoting angiogenesis in order to supply oxygen and nutrients after transplantation, thus relieving the symptoms of ischemia. Increase in angiogenesis can lead to the restoration of damaged tissues, thereby leading the way for successful tissue regeneration. Tissue regeneration is a broad field that has shown the convergence of various interdisciplinary fields, wherein living cells in conjugation with biomaterials have been tried and tested on to the human body. Although there is a prevalence of various approaches that hypothesize enhanced tissue regeneration via angiogenesis, none of them have been successful in gaining clinical relevance. Hence, the current review summarizes the recent cell-based and cell free (exosomes, extracellular vesicles, micro-RNAs) therapies, gene and biomaterial-based approaches that have been used for angiogenesis-mediated tissue regeneration and have been applied in treating disease models like ischemic heart, brain stroke, bone defects and corneal defects. This review also puts forward a concise report of the pre-clinical and clinical studies that have been performed so far; thereby presenting the credible impact of the development of biomaterials and their 3D concepts in the field of tissue engineering and regeneration, which would lead to the probable ways for heralding the successful future of angiogenesis-mediated approaches in the greater perspective of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
